This ambrosial sundae is eagerly anticipated each summer at our shops. We usually use tawny port, but it works well with almost any wine or spirit. You can add roughly chopped peaches, apricots, or plums, or substitute them for the berries. More

If you're one of these inveterate bacon apologists, then you don't need this review to tell you whether to try Burger King's new Bacon Sundae. But if you're a bacon appreciator with a legitimately open mind regarding its place on fast-food soft serve, come right this way. More

San Francisco has become quite the town for ice cream, despite hot days being a rarity. Rather than finding this incongruous, we think it's a sign of the city's true dedication to its frozen treats. With that in mind, we set out to find the best ice cream sundaes San Francisco had to offer, armed with little but our love of dairy and a hefty supply of Lactaid. More

I know it's just barely spring, but I'm already thinking about ice cream, gelato, sundaes, and other frozen desserts. Admit it, you've already had your first iced coffee of the season or started daydreaming about your favorite scoop shops to hit this summer. Here are some of my all-time favorite frozen treats from across America, from vanilla soft serve with maple-pecan-bacon streusel in Chicago to sundaes in Ohio. Chime in with any others I missed.

We weren't especially hungry and definitely overdressed, but when you pass a sign for Weir's Ice Cream, you stop. Actually, sign does not begin to describe the nearly two-story high soft serve cone (with a vanilla-chocolate swirly top, naturally) next to the stand. It was visible from many a street light away, and potentially from space. Ed was driving our Hertz-rented car through the Hudson Valley last weekend when we saw it. I don't think a car has ever parked so fast. More

It's always ice cream weather in Miami, but even if it weren't, that wouldn't stop droves of locals from waiting in line at Jaxson's. A true fixture—it's been around since the 1950s—Jaxson's delivers far more than the best ice cream in the greater Miami area. More

[Photo: Kathy YL Chan] There's no time of year that's not perfect for an ice cream sundae. In the last few weeks, I've been chasing sundaes down all over town in order to find the best of what our... More

When you think about the amount of sugar-soaked calories in a typical serving of pancakes, ice cream for breakfast doesn't sound all that crazy. And when you pair it with steel-cut oatmeal, as they do at Molly Moon's in Seattle, the whole concept seems vaguely healthy. More

Making hot fudge sauce is relatively straightforward. You just need cream to keep it flowing, light corn syrup for body and shininess without making it too sweet (that's where the brown sugar comes in), cocoa powder for the rich fudgy taste, and regular chocolate to smooth out the cocoa. The end result is much more interesting than anything you'd buy at the grocery store.More

At Pó Restaurant, The Pó Sundae is the signature sweet. A chilling scoop of fresh mint gelato, topped with a pour of warm chocolate sauce and cinnamon pine nuts. You get it all in one dessert—hot, thick chocolate, the refreshing... More

For this week's Mixed Review, I decided to test Duncan Hines' Signature Desserts Hot Fudge Brownie Sundae Mix ($3.99). In addition to fudge brownies, the mix includes a frozen vanilla mousse and packets of chocolate and caramel sauce. More

It's tougher than it looks. Open, flip over, push down on bottom, and finally, enjoy. Usually ice cream doesn't make people think this hard, but I actually had to watch a how-to video to understand the proper eating process... More

Photograph from GrubHub I love eating sundaes for the combination of ice cream, hot fudge, and whipped cream in each bite, but I hate that one sundae from a restaurant is usually too large for a single person (and... More

Last night, an ice cream craving hit me and Robyn. We also craved a brownie, so together, we were after a brownie sundae. We racked our brains for nearby options (we were at the Frying Pan in Chelsea) but... More
